What is the mechanica advantage of an inclined plane equal to? The distance moved by the object divided by the force applied The height of the plane divided by the length of the slope The weight of the object divided by the force applied The length of the sloped surface divided by the change in height

## Step 1The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is a measure of how much the inclined plane multiplies force. It is calculated by dividing the length of the inclined plane (the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed by the inclined plane) by the height of the inclined plane (the vertical side of the triangle).## Step 2The formula for the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is:### **Mechanical Advantage = **## Step 3This formula shows that the mechanical advantage is not dependent on the weight of the object or the force applied. It is solely dependent on the dimensions of the inclined plane itself.
